India has set a target of 155 GW of installed wind energy capacity by 2035, backed by manufacturing and supply chain initiatives.

As per PTI news report, India plans to increase its installed wind energy capacity to 100 GW by 2030 and 155 GW by 2035, Union Minister for New and Renewable Energy Pralhad Joshi said on Monday.

The country currently has more than 56.1 GW of installed wind power capacity, placing it among the largest wind energy markets globally.

Supply Chain Portal Launched

The announcement came alongside the launch of WT-MARUT, a digital platform for the wind turbine supply chain.

Introduced during the Global Wind Day conference in Goa, the portal is to provide information on component sourcing, supplier availability and domestic manufacturing under the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM) framework.

Wind Energy Sector Growth

India added 6.1 GW of new wind power capacity during FY26, the highest annual addition recorded so far and 46% higher than the previous year.

However, only a small part of the country's estimated wind energy potential of 1,164 GW has been developed, with less than 5% utilised at present.

Manufacturing and Exports

The country has an annual wind manufacturing capacity of around 24 GW across blades, towers, gearboxes, and nacelles.

According to a joint report by the Indian Wind Turbine Manufacturers Association and PwC, exports of wind turbines and related components crossed ₹12,000 crore in FY26, registering growth of nearly 50% over the previous financial year.

Conclusion

India's wind energy roadmap includes expanding installed capacity alongside improvements in domestic manufacturing and supply chain infrastructure to support future renewable energy requirements.
